* Handle administrative tasks to prepare, facilitate, and result court/hearing processes, following relevant service scripts and knowledge articles

* Process complaints in line with policies and procedures, supporting users through each stage and responding promptly to prevent escalation
* Undertake operational support using standard operating procedures to meet performance targets and service standards
* Manage case files with accurate data entry, secure information management, and compliance with retention/data loss protocols

What you'll bring:
* A customer-first approach with confidence communicating clearly, even when queries are complex
* Strong administrative accuracy-comfortable handling case files and maintaining high-quality records
* Ability to follow procedures, support compliance, and meet operational performance targets
